Benefits of Summer Tutoring!


Studying during the summer, or when on a break from school, can help students retain what they have learned. This is why many choose summer tutoring in order to maintain their comprehension, giving them an advantage once school is back in session.

Although many feel that summer vacations should be left open for play an enjoyment, is an hour long tutoring session a couple times a week that much to ask? Just think of how much easier the transition will be once school starts again in the fall.

Many students enroll in summer classes. In some cases, it is to make up for a failed class or final exam. In other cases, it is to advance their knowledge in a subject before they begin learning it in the classroom. With summer tutoring for academic development, the classes are fast paced; subject matter that is usually taught over four months can be covered in only a month’s time. Instead of sitting at home and wasting time, attending summer classes gives students an advantage.

Summer tutoring is become widely accepted these days, due to the increase in competition between students. Tutoring can give them a better chance of excelling in their studies. In addition, parents that work can drop their children for classes, instead of having them sit alone at home during the summer break. This gives their kids an invaluable opportunity to exercise their minds, stay active, and have fun while increasing their knowledge.

Stop Bullying!

AND WORDS CAN HURT FOREVER

By Garbarino & deLara









-1 out of 4 students is bullied.

- As Many as 160,000 stay home on any given day because they are afraid of being bullied.

-282,000 students are physically attacked in secondary schools each month.

-1 out of 5 kids admits to be bullying or done some for of bullying.

“One of the most surprising findings of our research was that many kids believe that adults in the school don’t really care about bullying, sexual harassment, and emotional violence (Garbarino & deLara. (2002).”

 Teachers need to show their students that they care about them!
Teachers need to be aware of their students relationships and classroom environment.
Teachers need to intervene and stop any form of bullying.
Teachers need to provide a positive classroom environment.
Teachers need to have clear rules and procedures for an effective classroom management.
